Common Questions
How long does a car battery last?
In Southern California heat, most batteries last 3 to 5 years. Extreme temperatures accelerate the chemical breakdown of the plates.
Can a bad alternator kill a new battery?
Yes. If the alternator overcharges or undercharges, it can warp plates or leave the battery depleted, causing premature failure.
Do you test for parasitic drain?
Yes. If your battery dies overnight, we can perform a draw test to see which electrical component is "leaking" power while the car is off.
